How would you paint this house differently?

They're like cowbells man.

BTW, they say they're for allowing air movement but the real reason is, it gives the hooker more options for getting out when the wife comes home

You are right.

Unfortunately, not everyone knows they aren't cut out to pick colors.

I've been impressed with the Martha Stewart color palette choices, combinations of colors that go together ever since I went to my in-laws.

These people knew nothing about style, design or colors but following these prearranged colors that go together packages made it virtually idiot proof and the inside of their house looked great.

My first home, located in Lehigh Acres, had 3 sets of pocket sliding double patio doors....all leading to the back lanai.

One set off the den...one off the living room....and the third off the master bedroom.

It also had a bidet in the master bath.

It was built by a couple of Cuban heritage from Miami and they put their special touches in it. 3-2 split w/2 car garage. I loved that house! Sold it and moved in 3 years re-locating here to NSB.

Here's a photo of the front - note the lion's head fountain....how freaking cool is that?

Not likely down on the FL coast for a house like that.

The columns should be all white. The darker green base makes no sense. And neither does the yellowish front door. Should be white, or a proper contrasting color. But what ever that yellow is, is not it.
